8 months

Silly Sawyer boy turned 8 months old on Friday!!

Lots of new things happened this month! Here's what you've been up to buddy...

-You wear mostly 6-9 month clothes, sometimes even 12 month stuff if its been washed & dried

-Size 3 diapers

-You still eat 8oz. of formula every 4 hours during the day

-You LOVE to eat! You have cereal & fruit mid-morning, either fruit or veggie in the afternoon & a veggie for supper. You've been eating squash, carrots, avocado, potatoes, apples, pears, & bananas.

-You do really well feeding yourself different finger foods like your stars, Mum Mums, Cheerios, & french fries

-You're getting your first tooth!! Teething hasn't been too, too terrible so far. It has messed up your sleep at night mostly which is hard because you have been such a great sleeper pretty much since birth! I'm so not used to waking up to a crying baby in the middle of the night.

-You are crawling all around

- You try to pull up on just about everything. I get very nervous that you're going to fall & bump your head!

- Daddy lowered your bed so you don't fall out when you stand up.

-You love when we read your books to you.

-You give high fives

- You like giving yourself kisses in the mirror

- You can say "momma" & "dada" but you don't actually say it to us

- You are learning to wave bye-bye

-Most people still say you look just like daddy

- Aunt Jamie calls you her "miniature homie"

- We get lots of compliments when we're out about how cute your hair is. We know ;)

-You've been making lots of funny faces & noises with your mouth lately trying to feel your tooth

Sawyer - You have started looking less & less like a baby & more like a little boy this month. That makes my feelings sad & happy all at the same time! Your dad & I think you are the cutest, sweetest, funniest little boy in the world. We love you more than you will ever know!!
